Grizzly Bear is out there in the trenches, playing talk shows and making everyone practice their vocal harmonies. It's not what indie pop can do for you, but what can you do for indie pop? Their latest LP is Veckatimest, and it's a catchier approach to songwriting for the Brooklyn bunch. It's so infectious, it may just get you to take Animal Collective out of your CD player.

We've also got Eating Us, the latest LP from everyone's favorite band of anonymous electronica fiends: Black Moth Super Rainbow. New music from Andrew Bird and Casiotone for the Painfully Alone hit the gauntlet, too.
